Alberti's Perspective: A New Discovery and a New EvaluationFootnote
* The ensuing note is an expansion of a talk delivered during the Renaissance session of the College Art Association meeting in New York, January 28, 1966. I would like to thank Professor Millard Meiss, chairman of the session, for his interest and comments on my ideas, and also the Graduate School and Professor William Jewell, Chairman of the Department of Fine Arts, Boston University, for a generous travel grant during the summer of 1965 for study in connection with the material in this article. Also, the generosity of those who offered me valuable and constructive criticism should be acknowledged. I am particularly grateful to Professor Alessandro Parronchi of the University of Urbino for his time and careful consideration of my remarks, and to Professor Cecil Grayson of Oxford University, Eugenio Battisti, visiting professor in 1965–66 at Pennsylvania State University, and Ulrich Krause of the Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florence. I am especially indebted to Professor John Spencer of Oberlin College for his inspiring introduction to me of Leon Battista Alberti, and to Professors Brooks Levy and Naomi Miller of Boston University for their respective help with my Latin translation and English composition.
